Hi,

I have a problem with something I supposed is a 1-st grade problem. I'm trying to do a skeleton-driven PVC window. For that I made an assemby with a skeleton (a square) and I planned to add to eache of the 4 sides of the skeleton an assembly containing flexible frame, flexible gaskets, corners.....BUT I can't do the corner joining (mittered). When I insert a cut into the assemby (one side) it cuts only the frame profile and the middle gasket but it doesn't cut the gasket that sits on the frame. I olso tried to do the cuts on each flexible part but in the assembly (one side of the skeleton) it says that it does not intersect the flexible-part anymore.

please help me

Serban D

So? Is that hard to do?

Serban,

Sorry, but I don't quite understand what you are trying to do from your description. Also, what do you mean by saying the parts are "flexible".

Do you have a picture of some sort that you could post, so it would be clearer what you are trying to do?

I sitched to another assembly (a mullion) but the problem persists. It cuts through the "m109418", it cuts the "sol106" but it doesn't cut the two "sol157910" and the "230-10-968-09". The depth was set both to 55, the width of the m109418 profile ( on his side is done the sketch), and "through all" on both sidescut.JPG

this assembly I want to join with another, cut at the same angle. That one does not get cut at all.

Hi Serban,

Did you check the "intersect" tab when you create the cut?

it should be on automatic or you should choose the body you liked to be cut
